Job Description

You'd lead the field for every project we build. Not one job at a time. You'll oversee our crews across all active projects, manage manpower company-wide, and set the standard for how our work gets installed. Our Project Manager has your back, and you'll have real latitude in how you run the field. This is not a desk role. You'll be in the shop and on the jobsites, working with foremen, solving problems in front of you, and keeping crews moving. If the best part of your week is walking a job and seeing it done right, this is the job for you. What you won't have is isolation. This is a collaborative team. Project Management, purchasing, and preconstruction are all in the conversation with you on how we install, sequencing, and what the crews need. Our newest project manager says the most surprising thing about working here is how supported he feels. That's not an accident and it wouldn't be any different in this seat. Who We Are We're a plumbing contractor building multifamily, ground-up and renovation, up to 250 units, plus hospitality and general commercial work. Most of it is in San Diego County, and we build throughout Southern California. A significant share of our multifamily work is affordable housing. Every one of those buildings is somebody's home, often somebody who waited a long time for it. It's work worth doing, and it keeps our pipeline strong when the market-rate economy slows. We're in this for the people: our team, our clients, our vendors, and the families who end up living in what we build. That's not a slogan. It's the reason the work is worth doing. It shows up in how we operate. We advocate for what's best for the overall project, not just for MHP, because when the job succeeds everyone on it does. That means being straight about what works and what doesn't, and staying genuinely open to new and better ways to build. The clients who value that keep calling us back. What Makes This Role Different You know what a superintendent does. Here's what's specific to us: You're looking across the whole company, not one job. Manpower, crew allocation, and field standards are yours to set and balance. That means seeing around corners on staffing before a job feels it. Developing foremen is the job, not a side effect of it. We're growing, and growth means we need more field leaders than we have. Mentoring, training, and holding people accountable is how that happens, and it's a big part of why this role matters. You'll have a real say in how we build. Prefabrication and installation workflows aren't set in stone here. If you see a smarter way to do something, we want to hear it and we'll actually try it. You're in the room early. You'll work directly with Project Management on constructability, sequencing, and schedule before problems reach the field, not after. Safety and quality are the standard, not the reminder. How our jobs look and how our people go home is a direct reflection of the person in this seat. What We're Looking For Extensive commercial plumbing experience. Ground-up multifamily strongly preferred Prior experience running multiple crews across multiple projects Strong command of manpower planning, jobsite logistics, and safety Direct. You address issues head-on and people know where they stand with you Steady under pressure. You make real-time calls with competing priorities and keep field and office on the same page Proactive. You anticipate what a job needs, line up manpower and material ahead of time, and clear obstacles before they cost a day Genuinely likes people. Crews work harder for leaders who care about them, and the good ones stay An ownership mindset. You run the field like it's your own company and want to be a key player in building something that lasts Our Values These are how we operate, with each other and with everyone we work with: OWN IT We take full responsibility for our outcomes, the good and the bad. We do what we say we'll do, and we do it well.
FIND A WAY
We take initiative and figure things out. We don't wait, blame, or pass the buck; we solve and move things forward.
EVOLVE TOGETHER
We continually improve ourselves, our processes, and how we work together. We stay humble, open to feedback, and committed to growth.
CARE ENOUGH TO SAY
We recognize and appreciate when someone does great work. We speak up respectfully when things don't align with our values, our commitments, or what we're collectively trying to achieve.
MAKE IT EASIER
We find smarter ways to work so everyone's job gets easier. We take the extra step, leaving things cleaner, clearer, and ready for what comes next.
